Issue Description

Certain refrigerators used in Recreational Vehicles (RVs) contain either a sensing algorithm or a thermal switch to interrupt power when it detects high temperatures that could lead to a fire. An insufficient response time can result in the power not being shut-off in sufficient time to prevent a fire, which could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install a thermocouple with a faster response time for all refrigerators with a sensing algorithm or a thermal switch.

Structure

Issue Description

On certain vehicles, the liquid propane (LP) gas supply hose located adjacent to the LP tank between the LP regulator and the iron pipe manifold can come into contact with the tank appurtenances guard causing the hose to wear through. This would allow LP gas to be released which could cause a fire. Correction: An elbow will be added to the manifold pipe which will redirect the hose around the guard.
